early fine five guys pitchers spring start
Early in spring training, I am fine with it because I need some guys to have at-bats, too. But once pitchers start going five innings, I want my pitchers to hit.
ask good guys hoping run took tying winning
We had our guys up there in the eighth, and you can't ask for more than that. What you're hoping for there is to get the tying or winning run on, and we did both, but they got a very big out. Randa took a pretty good swing, but just got it up in the air.
against both fun game gun guys roger threw top type
Both guys pitched great. That's the type of game we all expected. Young gun Jake did what we needed, threw zeros up there, because Roger was on top of his game. That's a fun game to watch, the young guy going against one of the best.
greater guys
There's not a greater feeling. This team's been pushed. These guys responded. It's been a bumpy road, but I couldn't be prouder.
coming covered guys prepared tested
We're covered in the outfield. We're getting tested right off the bat. But you need to be prepared for anything. We have experienced guys coming off the bench.
build continue fill guys holes next trying winning year
You have to fill some holes each year. Next year will be a different club, too. Ideally, you want to have guys come up through your system, but in the meantime, you want to continue to have winning seasons. What we're trying to do is build some consistency.
couple definitely full guys hurt
It definitely hurt because we've got a couple of guys down now so we're not at full strength,
bullpen cameron center field guys sure wait
We had to make sure the bullpen was in order. We've got some guys in the bullpen who need a break. So we'll wait a day, and Cameron will be in center field (today).
good gotten guys looks lost rut
One thing you want to get is good swings. It looks like we have gotten a little defensive. I think some guys have lost some confidence. For us to be in a rut this long, it shouldn't happen.
couple guys
We have a couple of guys down now,
both guys
Both those guys have had it going offensively. They're a big part of our ballclub.
credit guys hard simple swinging worked
For him to be swinging the way he is with the long layoff, ... it's a credit to how hard he worked in rehab. He's one of those guys with a simple swing. It doesn't take long to get it going.
guys impact
It's going to be crazy. Barry's one of those guys - he's an impact player. We're going to do our thing, go about our business.
break good guys playing trip turned
It turned out to be a good trip for us. We're playing better. It's good to see some guys break out with the bats.
